This is a role for a T-Shaped engineer : someone with deep expertise in LLMs, machine learning and mathematics, but with the broad proficiency across DevOps, databases, and microservices needed to turn experimental models into stable, scalable products. As a senior member of the team, you will drive Engineering Excellence, setting up the architectural benchmarks that allow our AI solutions to be resilient, compliant, and market-ready.
- What you'll do AI Orchestration & Agentic Systems :
- Design and implement complex, stateful agentic workflows using LangGraph and LangChain.
- Implement tool calling and Model Context Protocol (MCP) to securely connect models to diverse data sources and tools.
- Optimize high-throughput model serving using vLLM or similar high-performance engines.
Engineering Excellence & Mentorship
- Establish and enforce high-quality coding standards and modular architectural patterns across the AI stack.
- Lead by example through rigorous code reviews and hands-on technical guidance, fostering a culture of technical rigor and production readiness.
Data Engineering & Database Design
